4 BIG Reasons for Satire in America:

Political Satire on Twitter:

Political Satire…

Why do we like satire? Well, some very lucky people go through life in the very warm and safe cocoon of good luck and fortune. For those particular folks, perhaps the smile of good fortune never leaves their lips. The rest of us live anything but that kind of life and at this moment in time are saddled with enormous corruption and gluttonous greed at the highest levels, particularly in Washington with our "elected" officials and on Wall Street.

Most of us are determined to change this abdominable situation, however slow it is in coming. Satire is one, albeit, small weapon in the war, and we proudly present the best and most meaningful of that satire here.

Yes, the rest of us fight wars, get cancer, get into car accidents, lose friends and family to death or illness or worse...we are the ones who need a smile every now and again to balance out the garbage can that Washington and Wall Street can and often does dump on our heads. The American middle class needs to stop being lickspittles and fight back.

Laugh...and laugh often. Laugh as often as you can. Laugh in their faces. And make sure the bastards know that we are on to them!

So Vladimir Putin checks in at the Ukraine. A guard asks his name and he gives it. Then Putin is asked "occupation?" No Putin says, "just a visit." The Capitol Steps have tons of jokes like this - some vocally and most sung beautifully in well known tunes. Read more: Political Satire, The Capitol Steps, […]

Celebrity Apprentice fans, don't despair. Yes, your favorite show might be on hiatus now that NBC has severed its relationship with Donald Trump. But, should the apocalypse occur and The Donald becomes our nation's 45th chief executive, expect to see the program return ... to the White House.

The owners of this country want you to see Bernie Sanders as a hopeless, crotchety loon. As Donald Trump without the combover.
